Suicide Prevention for Patients With Chronic Pain

Veterans BioMedical Research Institute·interventional·Posted Jul 29, 2020·Updated Jul 24, 2025

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Problem-solving treatment and Supportive Psychotherapy for Suicide and Chronic Pain. Completed, enrolled 60 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Patients with chronic pain and moderate suicide risk (n=60) will be randomized to receive remote-PST or remote-supportive psychotherapy. We will assess problem-solving deficits through self-report, objective neuropsychological assessment and caregiver report. We have used an adaptive design so that if there is strong evidence for target engagement, we will continue with the trial as a fully powered clinical trial (i.e., the end of the current proposal will act as the interim assessment) to the determine the efficacy of remote PST for patients with chronic pain and moderate suicide risk (n=190) to improve suicide outcomes.
